*I Call It an Irish Cream Float
My friend Craig and I celebrated being young and single and carefree last night by cooking and eating an enormous pot of fusilli with broccoli rabe, parmigiano reggiano and pecorino romano, drinking an entire bottle of sauvignon blanc and slurping up massive amounts of Irish cream with Snelgrove Canadian Vanilla ice cream floating in it*. We had a blast . . . so naturally I spent the entire day today dyspeptic and hung over. But it was worth it, if only for teaching me that I must never do anything of the kind ever again—at least not when I have to work the next morning. (And/or to prepare by stocking up on Alka-Seltzer beforehand.)

Drink more water.
And I highly recommend the above pasta recipe to anyone. Its incredibly easy and tasty.

Yeah, I was too drunk, figuratively and literally, on Irish cream floats to pay much attention to water. So prosaic and uninspiring.
FYI: I’ve just posted the recipe for pasta with broccoli rabe as the inaugural entry in my cookbook!
